Visit to Mdm A - 16 Jan
Posted by CSC T.H.E. Seniors on Tuesday, January 19, 2016 with No comments
My first blog post!
This week, i went to visit Mdm A with Joel. Mdm A just came back from the hospital on Friday and is still feeling some pain in her legs. Despite being in the hospital for the past 1 week, she was still very cheerful and chatty. She shared many things about herself, from the experience in the hospital, her past and her family. I am really very amazed by how optimistic Mdm A is, especially after everything that she has gone through in her life. Chatting with Mdm A also made me realised that the things that we go through in life are all just small parts of our life and we really shouldn't dwell on it so much.
Then, Mdm A requested for us to help her with the cleaning of her fan and buying some stuff from NTUC. Joel started helping her to clean her fans while i went to NTUC. This is the 1st time that i am helping an elderly to buy grocery and the whole time i was thinking what if i buy the wrong stuff. And i really bought the wrong bananas for her. Even though i bought the wrong one, Mdm A kept thanking us. The little things that we do for the elderly felt effortless for us but the elderly really appreciate our help.
After every visit, there will always be something to learn from the different elderly. And these experience enriches my life. Looking forward to the next visit!
